This is the audio of our first live Q&A, streamed on Youtube in May of 2019! Join Kevin, Sophie, Noah, and a bunch of fans as we answer questions and repeatedly realize that, like... holy cow, this season was long. It was really long, y'all! What were we thinking?!
(A transcript of this Q&A can be found here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1WBsIR0sq1OsPT6n1IxyfiT77WIvI1Q6X/view)

And so they fell straight down to Hell,
And battled ‘til the end.

A blow of the hunting-horn. A battlecry. Boots that crash through snow and ice, the crackling of open flame, the bellow of an ancient, timeless beast of the frozen tundra.
They call him Old Cinder, the Frozen King of Flame. And this is just another New Year's celebration in the Southern Frosts.
Welcome to the Penumbra, dear Travelers. We hope you enjoy your journey.

Sophie scares the heck out of Kevin and then tells him about a new podcast from Parcast called Mind's Eye! Eep! You can go subscribe to the first four episodes of Mind's Eye now on any podcatcher, or you can go to parcast.com/mindseye to start listening now.
(Content paid for by Parcast.)
Trigger Warning: Mind's Eye is not our podcast, and so we cannot vouch for its content. Listeners should be warned that sexual themes and coarse language appear throughout this sample episode.

Kevin takes a second to sit down and rap with you about Imagined Life, a new show from Wondery that puts you in the shoes of someone wildly famous and successful. Are the shoes comfortable? Do they have good arch support? And whose shoes are you wearing, exactly? Only the third of these three questions will be answered on this show, and it's sure to be a good time finding out who!
What is it like to be famous before you’re famous? What is it like to walk in the shoes of another person? Each episode of IMAGINED LIFE takes you on an immersive journey into the life of a world-famous person. It’ll be someone you may think you know, even admire -- or maybe the opposite. You’ll get clues to your identity along the way. But only in the final moments will you find out who “you” really are. So sit back, let go, and -- imagine your life. Subscribe today at wondery.fm/
(Note: This is promotional content paid for by the Wondery podcast network.)

The creatures which thrive at the end of the world are enough to make even the bravest knight's skin crawl. Massive slugs of sentient slime and nightmare-guards to a fortress beneath a sea where nothing survives walk the halls that lead to Fort Terminus, and passing them will be no small feat.
Yet our heroes trudge on. On separate paths they draw closer and closer to the heart of this palace of horrors now, and if one thing scares them most, it's this: whatever lies within that terrible place terrifies the beasts outside it, too.
Welcome to the Penumbra, dear Traveler. We hope you enjoy your journey.

Two paths wind beneath Judge Helicoid's monstrous courtroom: two paths containing different players in this game, different tricks and traps and treacheries. All they share is this:
A destination. Fort Terminus, the prison at the end of the world.

Give up control.
That's what the thing that looks like Mick says to do. And in a year like the one Juno Steel has had, with the past, present, and city of the future all out to get him... why not? In a world where control can be torn from you so easily, so constantly... why not just give in, let that thing plug you in to its monstrous chip, and give everything you have away to it?
So why not, Juno? Why not give up control to the Theia Soul?

Our final voting contest for US listeners opens on Election Day, November 6!

(This episode is sponsored promotional material.)
Sophie snuggles up under the covers with you to chat about Halloween plans and spooky podcasts, like Blackwood, a Blair Witch-style podcast about three teenagers who investigate stories of the Blackwood Bugman and get a lot more than they bargained for.
Blackwood is a new podcast from Skylark. You can subscribe to it over on iTunes or go to wondery.fm/pen.

Ramses O'Flaherty has been a busy man in recent days. A brand new way of life doesn't build itself, after all -- and before you can ever build it, you'll have to tear down the old life getting in everyone's way.
As Juno and Rita come up from the sewers they can see, immediately, that Ramses has succeeded in the latter goal. Oldtown is gone. It's never coming back. And in its place stands Newtown, a shining city on a hill, a paradise of Ramses's own design. The only questions, then, are these: what is paradise? And what must one do before they allow one through its gates?
Welcome to the Penumbra, dear Traveler. We hope you enjoy your journey.

Legends say that far north of the Second Citadel, close to the Northern edge of the world itself, lives the Spiral Sage. They say he is a powerful being, a sacred warrior for human good who controls time and the wilderness itself. They say he is a great hero.
And he'd better be, because the number of creatures who need saving keeps on rising. First Lord Arum, then Rilla and Sir Caroline, and then... well, you'll just have to hear for yourself.

Far, far to the north of the Second Citadel lies the Terminus, a sacred or magical ocean (depending on who you ask), a place of power where world-changing things happen... and where monsters bicker for order and entertainment.
Sir Caroline and Rilla are deep in monster country, now: deep enough that the human tales of this land are fuzzy and indistinct. They've wandered into the land of beasts... and soon they'll find that the rules are a little different here.
Welcome to the Penumbra, dear Traveler. We hope you enjoy your journey.

Down in the sewers, home seems like a distant memory. It's even more distant for Detective Steel now, because even aboveground home doesn't feel like home anymore. Hyperion City has changed. Even its sewers have changed, and the things that crawl in those sewers.
And at the bottom of it all is Ramses Takano, or should we say Jack O'Flaherty, or should we say any number of names that once belonged to this incredible disappearing and reappearing man. Blink and his face has changed. Blink and your city has changed. Blink and your home has changed -- and once a thing like that has left you, can you ever find it again?
Welcome to the Penumbra, dear Traveler. We hope you enjoy your journey.

Where is everybody?
That's the question that dogs Juno Steel now. He has bigger things to handle, he knows. Loose ends to tie up, old betrayals to pay back, and a mysterious mayor to reckon with. But even while city-sized mysteries weigh him down, the one that concerns him most is much closer to home... and while he tries to solve his disappearing act, all he has to keep him company is the tale of another disappearance, thirty years in the past.
Welcome to the Penumbra, dear Traveler. We hope you enjoy your journey.
